Re: Even more embedded SQL....

Look in the archives for uses of the CASE statement.  I don't remember the
exact syntax at this time, but you can use the case statement to order by a
specific field based on the user selection.

  Hi All,

  I have been given a project that requires the need to display, within a
subfile, the data from 2
  separate files with the ability to sort that data from any number of
different columns. So I
  thought to myself, this smacks of embedded SQL and Dynamic Sorting
Subfiles. The unfortunate
  thing is that the data I have to display is over 15,000 records long (and
growing) so if anyone
  can help me, I am looking for an example of embedded SQL and Dynamic
Sorting Subfiles - Page at
  a time (with the ability to position to a particular piece of data)"

  Some title for an article huh? If anyone has an example of what is
required, or could point me
  in some direction, I would be very grateful.
